And the study was even proven wrong in the 17th century. A finite amount of monkeys already produced Shakespeare in a finite amount of time; it took roughly 55 million years.

Source: Primates show up in the fossil records, dating to roughly 55mill years. And Shakespeare’s complete works were most likely completed by William Shakespeare, a famous decendant of said primates.

Highest to lowest. I edited it into the comment.

Interesting tidbit: from left to right, these are ordered by the efficiency of the oxygen transportation, highest to lowest.

Blue blood may be cool, but red blood is better for you.

Previous job: Windows, because it was a company issued laptop. Plus a lot of the company was built around the MS ecosystem.

Current job: Linux, because I got to keep the perfectly decent Dell laptop when I left. I wanted to make sure I purged everything, so it’s running LMDE now. Plus, there’s not much outlook and teams stuff that I have to use.

I blame Daniel

I realized a few years ago that my GF inadvertently solved this issue for me: She likes registering for anything that provides a discount, so I use her phone number.

“Are you a member?”
“Nope, but my GF probably is…”, and 90% of the time I am correct.

Some surface-level info while I’m waiting for my kids to finish the evening ritual: No need for an extra IP or VPS. You can host them all on the same IP and machine, provided there aren’t any conflicting port assignments.

In the DNS server, you can enter the various subdomains as CNAME pointing to the A record. The server-software is configured with which hostname it should operate as (For example, HTTP/1.1 has a Host-specification in the initial request, so that one server can host multiple domains on the same IP)

It should be noted that mail servers are indicated by an MX-record. And mailservers should also have a TXT record (SPF record) as part of spam prevention - some SMTP servers query this to ensure that your e-mail actually comes from you and not from someone spoofing the domain.

I used to have a zone file that did roughly what you’re trying to do, bit sadly I don’t have it anymore. But as you have DNS up and running, I’m sure you’ll be able to figure out the rest through checking some examples.

I half-baked an example zone file for you. I haven’t tested it, though. It assumes the domain of blargh.com being hosted from an IP of 123.123.123.123:

$TTL 86400
@    IN    SOA   ns1.blargh.com. admin.blargh.com. (
                2024102102 ; Serial (incremented)
                3600       ; Refresh
                1800       ; Retry
                1209600    ; Expire
                86400      ; Minimum TTL
)

; Name servers

@    IN    NS    ns2.blargh.com.

; A Records

ns2          IN    A      123.123.123.123

; CNAME Records
mail         IN    CNAME  blargh.com.
mastodon     IN    CNAME  blargh.com.
matrix       IN    CNAME  blargh.com.

; MX Records
@            IN    MX     10 mail.blargh.com.

; TXT/SPF Record
@            IN    TXT    "v=spf1 mx ~all"

Oh, and some tips:

• Do not enable SMTP-relay on your SMTP server. This opens you up to abuse, and you (probably) don’t need it.
• Your DNS server should only talk to strangers about queries about your domain. Otherwise you might be part of a DNS amplification attack.
• I have a personal preference for imap.blargh.com or pop3.blargh.com, combined with smtp.blargh.com, as it makes it easier to deduct the protocol, if you’re not supporting imap and pop3. I don’t think anyone else but me care, though.

I primarily use perl, and while I find its syntax easy to understand, I’ll be the first to admit that its syntax and special use cases thereof does provide a way for some rather exotic symbol-garbage to be valid code.

Normal perl code is simple enough. But abnormal code does happen, sometimes on purpose, sometimes by accident.

I’ll share with you this gem:
Why is this program valid? I was trying to create a syntax error

I’m not sure I’d be comfortable with my landlord harvesting my vomit as rent.

Samsung also builds ships

I use dracut (although autocorrect claims I use Dracula) at work (Centos) and initramfs (autocorrect says intramuscular) at home.

And I have to admit that I don’t notice a whole lot of difference.

Will have a look tomorrow if I find the time. I don’t have much storage space at the moment, though, so if I do end up grabbing it all, I’m going to need one of you to take it off my hands, depending on size.

My hardware is. But I suspect the linux support is lacking in MSFS24.

I would argue that multimedia came before win95. You can see many sound+video+more integrations on program-level before then (The installer for Command&Conquer is a legendary example. There’sa reason why the first setting the installer asks of you is your soundcard details.)

But it was with win95 the concept was embraced by an operating system geared towards it. And that’s what allowed for many of the whacky UI designs of media players that came not long after.

Yup. Large creatures knows better than to wear stripes.

My computer can upgrade to win11. I clearly remember the vendor stating that when I bought it last year.

I’ll stick to linux, though.

I have both 3rd and 4th edition around here somewhere.

EDIT: Found them. It was 2nd and 4th edition

Inside you there are two wolves; Neither is alpha, beta, sigma or any of the other Greek letters, because wolves only behave that way in captivity. These aren’t in captivity. They’re feasting on you, as you were their prey.
